And I especially don’t live my life according to the diet culture…and I’ve actually lost weight. This is a different experience.”

She continued to say that she now feels much happier and content with her new lifestyle. “But I feel full, not of food. But of divine wisdom and cosmic guidance. Peace. Serenity. Joy. And Love,” she said.
Demi captioned this post, “I’m full of peace, serenity, joy, and love today.” Fans loved this post from the star, and many flocked to the comment section of her post to support her. One fan commented, “Yes ma’am listen to your body’s need that’s all that matters.”Another fan said, “And if you didn’t lose weight or gained weight, that’d be ok too.”
Vanessa Hudgens, a fellow Disney alum, also expressed her support on Demi’s post. Vanessa said, “Yessss mama” and added a series of heart and hand gesture emojis to emphasize her support.
Demi Lovato has publicly spoken about her issues with eating disorders in the past. In an interview on The Ellen Show in 2020, Demi stated, “I lived a life for the past six years, that I feel wasn’t my own, because I struggled really badly with an eating disorder and that was my primary problem and then that turned into other things.”
She revealed to Ellen that she had an incredibly restrictive diet during that period. “For many years, I didn’t even have a birthday cake,” she said.
The star spoke about her recovery from eating disorders on Christmas Day in 2020. The star posted an image of her stretch marks covered in glitter and stated, “I’m so grateful that I can honestly say for the first time in my life - my dietitian looked at me and said, “This is what eating disorder recovery looks like.”'
